It doesnt work on RC1 (as they clearly say its only for older builds).

I tried installing it anyway, but installation stops because I "dont
have rights" to install the diskeeper service...

Any workaround for this or we have to wait for a newer build from
Diskeeper Corp?

I really really hate vista defrag.

No known workaround for Diskeeper (until they release a newer version for
RC1+).

O&O Defrag (Pro Version 8) works in RC1.

Which build?
I tried the last one and got the dreaded message "this software does
not support this version of windows"...

Version 8, not the 8.5 available on the O&O website.
Interesting that the older version works, and the newer one does not.

I tried both 8 and 8.5 with no luck on Vista 32. My error message was *the
application does not support this processor*. Interestingly, I'm using O&O
on the XPx64 side with great results.

Hi,
Even though there's no cute gui;
Admin command prompt defrag works just fine now- it's free;and does just as
good;or better than O&O.
Trust me on this;tried out O&O; and Diskkeeper;both defrag with less
success then yur basic command prompt.
Yea; there's not cute pics;or colors;but checking using a command prompt
defrag analyze showed very acceptable results;as did analysis after
defrag;looking at the drive with O&O;after the command line defrag.

Ok,
Just an FYI,
Command prompt defrag works fine now-its free and does just as good or
better than O&O.
Yea; no cute GUI; but works great now.
